Proceeding contribution from Lord Cormack (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 February 2021. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Myanmar.

Myanmar

My Lords, I have a very close friend who has a son working in Myanmar. He has informed me that the British embassy has ceased to register British residents in the country. Could my noble friend confirm whether this is correct and whether the embassy is fully staffed? Does he agree that our presidency of both the Security Council and the G7 gives us a special opportunity to become global Britain? Will we convene a special meeting of the G7 and undertake to keep this very deplorable situation on the agenda of the Security Council?
